Comment Guidelines

Due to an increase in From Western Colorado readership and comments, I feel compelled to add this page and a few lines to guide your comments. First, I’m very grateful that all of you are reading and listening to my work, and I encourage you to continue to engage in a dialogue about the issues. There are, however, a few changes I’d like to make concerning what and how you add to the discussion. Please take time to read them before posting.

Feel free to add your opinions, questions, and expertise – whether you agree with what I write or not. I encourage a healthy dialogue that includes all points of view.

Do not add slanderous or libelous comments. They will not be posted.

No name-calling.

Please do not use my blog as a place to post a press release or calls for action. I encourage you to create your own blog for that. While I may occasionally post calls for action on a particular issue, I alone reserve the right to do that on this blog.

If you want to add something personal, please do so and I will respond via email. I may not post your personal message on the blog but I will always respond.

That’s it for now. Thanks so much for all your comments and please keep them coming. And, thanks for listening…
